Life is a picnic....

Especially when the weather is as nice as it has been today.  The theme over at The Glitter Geeks this week is "Teddy Bears Picnic", and here is my card.



I used Tim Holtz distress inks to create the sky and beach/grass for the background and the new limited edition colours for my balloons. They are great colours for the spring and summer. I used a CDRom for the cute wee teddy and accented his nose and the cherry on the cupcake with Glossy Accents.

Ingredients;

4x6 blank kraft card

Teddy from Me To You Cdrom

Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Limited edition Spring colours and Broken China and Shabby Shutters.

Cupcake stamp by Smirk, coloured with watercolour pencils, cherries highlighted with Glossy Accents.

Quickcutz Balloon Die.

Craftwork Card Sentiment

Stampin' Up Linen Twine.

White ribbed paper and chequered paper from stash.

Hope you like the card, and join in with us this week :)
